DSK Shivajians FC has joined hands with LFC International Football Academy to form India's first International Club Residential Academy named LFC International Football Academy â€“ DSK Shivajians. This collaborative initiative has been envisioned to create a unique platform ensuring the development and promotion of the sport in India.
